Non-dairy creamer

Non-dairy creamer is a special kind of powder or liquid that you can put in your coffee or tea instead of milk or cream. It's called non-dairy because it doesn't come from milk like regular cream does. Instead, it's made with things like corn syrup, oils, and a bunch of other ingredients that help it taste kind of like milk or cream, but without the dairy.

When you pour the non-dairy creamer into your coffee or tea, the tiny particles in the powder or liquid mix with the hot liquid and dissolve. This makes the coffee or tea taste richer and creamier, just like it would if you added milk or cream. Some people really like the taste of non-dairy creamer because it can come in lots of different flavors, like hazelnut or vanilla.

Overall, non-dairy creamer is a good option for people who don't want to or can't have dairy in their diets, but still want to enjoy a creamy cup of coffee or tea.
